My thesis on #Hypergrowth #microcap & #Smallcap #investing:

"They don't screen well - and therein lies the opportunity. Because you need to do work that a computer can't. It requires knowledge and expertise to understand rather than just see."

[FBI Director Kash Patel @FBIDirectorKash]

The @FBI has identified cyber actors associated with Russian Intelligence Services targeting users of commercial messaging applications, including Signal.

The campaign targets individuals of high intelligence value, including current and former U.S. government officials, military personnel, political figures, and journalists.

Globally, this effort has resulted in unauthorized access to thousands of individual accounts. After gaining access, the actors can view messages and contact lists, send messages as the victim, and conduct additional phishing from a trusted identity.

It's important for you to be aware and take action - this vulnerability is not with the application - but you as the end user.

The FBI and CISA have released a joint PSA to help you identify this activity and protect your accounts: https://t.co/NzjnU2glNh

Ladies, gentlemen, SWs fans…😝
I have explored space.
I have explored time.
Now… I explore distortion.
Yes. You read that correctly.
I am releasing a HEAVY METAL album.
Thirty-five metal virtuosos. Thunderous guitars. Chaos with purpose.
Covers of legends like Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest — and a few originals forged in the same cosmic fire.
This project is, quite literally, a gathering of forces. Loud imagination. Honest intensity. Unapologetic exploration.
At 94, one does not slow down. One turns the volume up.
So prepare yourselves.
We are about to boldly headbang where no one has headbanged before. 🤘
Stay tuned. The metal voyage begins this year.

@Austen You need more fiber

[Colin Fisher @ctfish70]

@YouTubeTV why do you insist on making your apps, website & AppleTV app - SUCK!!! NOW I cannot read the comments - if they need to be scrolled. And FIX THE SAVING TO PLAYLISTS ON THE APPS. Having to go in and save to each playlist one at a time is not better. ENSHITIFICATION!!

@LongosMarkets fire your IT department they suck. Can't deliver to downtown Toronto apparently. They can't figure out how to take an input postal code.

@hetmehtaa That's a phage not a virus

I just discovered profiles for @Linux terminals. How am I just figuring this out now? Don't answer that...

You can change terminal colours in @Linux terminal via the hamburger next to the search icon - go to Preferences then to 'Profiles +'

While this cancelling of the @colbertlateshow is indeed a travesty of free speech and undue influence. I think this will unleash @StephenAtHome to do what he wants - and will unleash something unexpected and great.

PSA: PyTorch 2.6 (& dependent apps e.g Ollama) are silently failing on new RTX 50-series GPUs.
Manifestation: Silent low-level unraveling with sm_120 CUDA errors.
Problem: PyTorch 2.6> builds lack Blackwell architecture support.
Solution: Upgrade to PyTorch 2.7 and CUDA 12.8.

Pytorch 2.6 and CUDA kernels - don't include sm_89 kernels for Nvidia 50xx series cards. So sentence-transformers, ollama, embedding models, etc. Are likely are not working right now - causing hangs, memory issues, CUDA issues, - just issues. Go cloud GPU for now. #developer
